A Darker Side of Pink
25 October 2013 , 5:18 PM by Lachlan Mackintosh
On our last Taboo Tuesday, we covered quite a challenging topic, and got an insight into the world of women who have incurable Breast Cancer.
It's a topic close to many, and Rebecca recorded this chat with Marg, a friend and colleague whose daughter Amanda had stage 4 Breast Cancer.
Marg is frustrated at the money raised and spent on "pink" events, and would rather see money go to research for a cure.
Sadly Marg's daughter Amanda passed away not long after that conversation - she was 41 years old - survived by three young children.
In response to that terrible news, Carole Renouf, the CEO of the National Breast Cancer Foundation, wrote this editorial on the 'pink movement'.
